If there is no crying, our Parish is dying! We are all on a spiritual journey, trying to find our way. All are welcome to join us on our spiritual journey at St. Edith.

Can we bring you the Eucharist?

If you or someone you know is homebound, hospitalized, in assisted care, or just plain ill and seek the Eucharist. Please contact Deacon Don. to arrange for one of our Home Bound Ministers to bring Holy Communion, pray, and visit with those who are unable to come to Church to receive the Eucharist. Arrangements can be made to have regular visits, please contact us!!

Sandwich Squad - New Ministry

We are starting a new ministry here at St. Edith and it involves sandwiches! Specifically, we will be providing 120 sandwiches monthly for “Into the Fire” ministry which serves people who are hungry on the streets of Detroit. This is an amazing opportunity to truly be the hands and feet of Jesus as we make sandwiches for hungry neighbors. I am looking for a Coordinator or two to help organize this effort and keep it rolling. If you are looking for a way to use your time and talent to help others, this may be for you. Please contact me if you are interested. I am also looking for groups at Church or School (could be a sports team, men’s/women’s/mom’s/dad’s group, Scouts, families, Commissions, etc.) to sign up to take on the sandwich making duties for one month of the year. This would also include providing the bread, lunchmeat, cheese, and sandwich baggies to make the sandwiches. Groups or individuals can sign up to make all 120 sandwiches for the month, or any amount in increments of 20. We’ll also have months where we gather at Church and individuals can make sandwiches. Monetary donations will be needed to help offset the cost of food items when we don’t have a group covering the expenses. I’m estimating it will cost about $170/month. If you want to learn more about this opportunity, please contact Patti Kelly for details at 734-464-1222, ext. 301 or pkelly@stedith.org. If your group is ready to step up to commit to a month for this effort, please visit the Sign Up Genius at: https://www.stedith.org/sandwich-squad
